Añadir al carritoNew York: Transworld Art Corporation, 1975. Huge folio, 711 x 540 mm: 98 unnumbered pages in 24 leaves and 1 sheet of Arches, of which 10 leaves contain the 10 prints, in a square-cut folder of Arches contained in a white leather-covered solander box with the title blocked in gold on the front and the subtitle with one star on t…he spine. The solander box and sculpture contained in a white leather-covered presentation case fastened with two metal studs, with the title blocked in gold on the front and the subtitle on the spine. Condition: Prints and text leaves near-fine with very minimal off-setting and age toning; small blemish to one edge of the Soto sculpture; the presentation case with a touch of inevitable wear to the edges. Muriel Rukeyser's copy and evidently very rarely removed from the original cardboard shipping box, together with her copy of the absurdly small trade edition with her ownership inscription on the half title. § One of 25 copies not intended for sale, with the ten original prints numbered "H.C. 20/25" and signed in pencil by the artists, together with a signed multiple by Jesus Soto. A lavish celebration of the United States bicentennial, combining original artworks and literary extracts with an introduction by Muriel Rukeyser. Incredibly, this monumental construction was only part one of the project and two similar compendia followed, published and issued separately. The portfolio contains the following: JESUS SOTO, "Homenaje al Humano" Multiple sculpture made by Atelier Tosi, Milan, Italy, 1975 HENRY MOORE, "Two Women Bathing Child" Lithograph printed by Curwen Press, London, England, 1975. PIERRE ALECHINSKY, "Central Park" Lithograph printed by Clot, Bramsen et Georges, Paris, France, 1975. GRACIELA RODO BOULANGER, "Le Dimanche Matin" Lithograph printed by Mourlot, Paris, France, 1975. ALEXANDER CALDER, "Flies in the Spider Web" Lithograph printed by Mourlot, Paris, France, 1974. ROMARE BEARDEN, "The Family" Etching printed by The Printmaking Workshop, New York City, 1975. PAUL JENKINS, "Phenomena Franklin's Kite" Lithograph printed by Mourlot, Paris, France, 1974. MARK TOBEY, 'The Scroll of Liberty" Lithograph printed by Mourlot, Paris, France, 1973. RICHARD ANUSZKIEWICZ, "New Glory" Serigraph printed by New York Institute of Technology, Old Westbury, New York, 1975. SALVADOR DALI, "The Glory That Was Spain's" Etching, hand colored, printed by Atelier Rigal, Fontenay aux Roses, France, 1975. NANCY GROSSMAN, "The Road to Life" Lithograph printed by Styria Studios, New York City, 1975. The literary extracts are by John F. Kennedy, Abraham Cahan, Horace Traubel, Jane Addams, William Faulkner, Jacob Riis, Gustavus Vasa, José Martí, Charles Dickens, Gottlieb Mittelberger, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Willa Cather, Morris Shloss, O. E. Rölvaag, Stephen Crane, John Wise, Emma Lazarus, Benjamin Franklin and anonymous authors. The full edition consisted of 175 regular sets numbered 1-175, 50 deluxe sets numbered I-L, 25 sets numbered H.C. 1-25 "reserved for exhibition purposes and gifts to those who made this project possible," and 25 sets numbered E.A. or A.P. 1-25 reserved for the artists. In total, 275 sets. Despite the relatively large edition number there are almost no records of this portfolio in institutional catalogues or at auction, suggesting either that the full edition was never issued or that copies were immediately broken up for their splendid prints (both is likely true). The sole institution that appears to have any of the portfolios is, ironically, the National Library of Quebec, which has all three. The Transworld Art Corporation was a New York-based company which published contemporary art prints and portfolios in deluxe formats. The 33 artists involved in the three volumes of the American Portrait project were commissioned and corralled over four years prior to the bicentennial and the result was celebrated with a travelling exhibition which opened at the Graphic Eye Gallery in July 1976. A review. Signed.
